Behind the Magic | The Visual Effects of Gladiator II

[@B-...]

After thousands of hours of work, wish we would get videos longer than 4 minutes. This is so cool! No wonder the movie looked so good.

[@cristobaltaiba5031]

Okay, they deserve the Oscar nomination, this is insane

[@cristobaltaiba5031]

@captainronlives in general, there more moments with good cgi, and there won't be many nominees Dune? Yes, Planet of the Apes and Alien? Yes, Deadpool and Wicked? Probably not And you are watching the same video, is good

[@LannLannister]

The movie visuals are absolutely STAGGERING! Been watching major blockbusters for more than 30years now and Ridley nailed it yet again, it looks like a painting in movement. Congratulations everyone involved! 🎉🔥

[@LannLannister]

​@@captainronlives sure thing i am, have seen movies of all sorts and budgets in my life, this one is monumental and only a blind person could say otherwise. You didn't like it?! What a loss man, we will miss you for sure.

A Work of Art

[@PASTRAMIKick]

Really cool that it's the same double-sided fortress from Kingdom of Heaven, back in use after almost 10 years!

[@knyght27]

Do you mean 20 years? Kingdom of Heaven was from 2005

[@arthurhrn]

AWESOME WORK!!! Simply impeccable! Congrats guyssss

[@zetuki6615]

Wow, there are shots I thought they were full cgi but not, Ridley Scott in terms of building sets and making action is top tear

[@joesayle2213]

Really cool breakdowns on this film. Thank you !

[@TeddyLeppard]

Solid looking effects.

[@thunderboltproductionsshpk]

Pure Spectacle. 0:30 one of the greatest shots in Cinema History, those fire particles -haze-smoke coming towards the Centurion..... perfection 🤌🏼.

[@PASTRAMIKick]

ILM are the undisputed OGs but recently framestore have been killing it as well

[@AT1972ASDF]

Those ship-car models were a pretty cool way to do it. Especially in the desert. I just assumed that was two distinct shoots combined, but the practical work was cool

[@maxer167]

actually this is the part that interests me the most , even more than watching the movie.

[@williamsolis1]

This video should be longer but also Gladiator II should have been longer.

[@JosephRodriguez-xx3fn]

Napoleon Didn't Win last year Should have Instead of Godzilla which was Good give them credit On the Buget, Gladiatorll needs to Win this Year I.L.M.👏👏👏👏you guys are the Best Thank you George ❤👍👍👍 and they Laughed at you! Now look!👍👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@ignaciocasini7773]

Hollywood no se cansa de echar mocos, igual re bien industrial como siempre. Ojala algún día les contrate un proyecto como la gente de nuevo

[@PhotoFlight]

Wow!

[@sorisatang]

👏👏👏👏👏

[@NotStoopid0228]

As amazing as these are, I don't think it does it justice. Look at the monkey fight scenes; I think everything was replaced except for the human's head. Wow!

[@coreyfisler8663]

Ilm did good.

[@Random-xd4zm]

I thought the rhino and ape Work is from Framestore or did they shared assets and Shots together

[@SAMTHINKS2]

Could somebody buy the rights to an old Samson and Delilah type movie and do this to it? And new sound, music etc. I bet there are golden performances out there that deserve new life.

[@OliverHollingdale]

Anyone of ILM can shed light on how on earth do you mask around hair when there is no green screen behind the person, How do you avoid the blurred mask cheapness?

[@pixel.catcher]

All sorts of methods, there's AI-driven tools that are damn good for pulling hair mattes, good old fashioned manual roto, luma mattes... Honestly, green screen can often be more of a hindrance and still requires a lot of work to get a nice matte.

[@NotStoopid0228]

At this point I'm starting to wonder if they usually just replace the hair with CGI too. Either that or a ton of frame-by-frame attention and care. Incredible work on display either way.

[@PASTRAMIKick]

The weather seemed kinda overcast in some of the Numidia scenes, easier light to deal with in VFX

[@JBTriple8]

Better Then Wicked Gladiator II Rock

[@LannLannister]

Wicked was a school project in comparison 😂
